Chapter Twenty-Four: The Soul of the Sea

"The little junior brother has a very high cultivation talent. Luo Erjiao laughed, and then said seriously: "It's okay if you don't say it, but you have to be more careful in the future, don't make a casual move." If you learn martial arts privately, if Uncle Cangfeng knows about it, you will be expelled from the mountain gate. ”

"Well, I know, thank you for reminding me. Qin Mu smiled and said casually.

"Little junior brother, I'm going to officially practice in three months. The two were walking on the way back to the mountain, and Luo'er said suddenly.

"Haha, didn't you say before that you were afraid that cultivation would make people ugly?" Qin Mu said with a smile.

"What's the matter, I'm going to sword cultivation, you martial arts cultivation will make people ugly, those senior sisters-hey. Luo'er spit out her little pink tongue, and suddenly she quickly shut up.

"Sword cultivation, it is said that the senior sisters of sword cultivation are all beautiful women. Qin Mu shook his head with a smile, and suddenly said, "Little Senior Sister, don't talk about today's events after you go back, do you know?"

"Yes, I see. Luo'er frowned and said with a smile.

"By the way, I won't visit Uncle Shi today, I'll visit you another day. I'm going to cut down trees. Qin Mu said with a sudden realization.

"Oh—" Lorre's elongated voice echoed across the forest road—

Qin Mu sent Luo'er away, went up the mountain, and came to the dense ironwood forest, but saw that the mountains were full of ink and green, heavy and stacked, the mountain wind blew, the leaves rustled, and the grass not far away was undulating, like the waves of the sea, which was extremely spectacular.

Although the punches that hit Ye Shan's body were not heavy, they were undoubtedly a great vent of anger for Qin Mu, who had been dull for a long time.

At this time, bathed in the mountain breeze, his heart was suddenly widened.

He took a deep breath of the fresh mountain air, moved himself, and walked into the ironwood forest with the black axe, he thought that he could cut two ironwoods before it got dark.

In that case, will I be able to practice formally?

The afternoon sun is clear and transparent, the mountain breeze is gentle, and the two sides of the trail are covered with green weeds, Qin Mu is in this green ocean, walking to the depths of the forest, walking for a while, showing a more green field in front of him, where the iron wood is lined up, the branches and leaves are luxuriant, straight into the clouds, and the tree quality is also harder.

Qin Mu looked left and right, picked a thigh-thick ironwood tree, compared it, and raised his knife to cut it.

"Poof!", suddenly a flutter of wings came.

As soon as Qin Mu raised his axe, he saw a yellowed paper crane in the woods, flying towards him lightly.

When Qin Mu saw it, he knew that this was a special sound-transmitting paper crane used by monks, because expensive materials were generally used, so this kind of paper crane was generally only used to convey important news.

"Who is looking for me?" Qin Mu put down the black axe in his hand, caught the flying paper crane with some confusion, and gently pinched it with his hand, the yellow paper crane instantly turned into ashes, and a thick and anxious voice came out.

"Come to the Nine True Caves!"

It was the voice of the mysterious old man who taught him the Seven Star Fist yesterday.

"Is something wrong?" Qin Mu muttered, and hurriedly ran towards the cliff.

After about dozens of minutes, a steep cliff appeared in front of him, he looked down the cliff, carefully jumped down along some raised stones on the cliff, and climbed the dark path formed by the stones to go directly to the cave.

For this road, Qin Mu walked through it once yesterday, so while remaining careful, he soon came to the entrance of the cave.

Jumping into the cave, the cool feeling suddenly washed away the stinky sweat on Qin Mu's body, and the temperature here and outside was like ice and fire, and it was already the existence of another space.

The cave was not extremely spacious, and Qin Mu quickly came to the stone room with the memory of yesterday.

Approaching the stone platform, I saw that on the stone platform, the old man was sitting cross-legged, exuding a faint light, and there was a slight cold air wafting in the air.

"You're here. ”

I didn't see the old man's lips move, but I heard the old man's ethereal voice.

Qin Mu was shocked and hurriedly said, "Yes, senior, the disciple is late." ”

The old man still sat there without moving, and then another voice said: "Junior, the encounter between you and me shows that you have an immortal fate, the old man is known as Xuanying Zhenren, the heavens and the earth have been spanning for hundreds of years, and his cultivation has reached the Martial Saint Ninefold Realm! However, in order to break through, to break through to a higher Heavenly Spirit Realm, and to pursue the existence of Void Divine Power, I took a desperate risk—now, I am dying, not because my cultivation is wrong, but because I am really making people worse, and I am extremely helpless. ”

Hearing this, Qin Mu opened his mouth, thinking to himself that he was not fine yesterday, why did he say that he was dead today? Moreover, when Qin Mu heard that this old gentleman claimed to be a real Xuanying person, his face showed an extremely shocked look.

Qin Mu's heart trembled, and he asked with a puzzled face: "Senior—the predecessor is the Xuanying Martial Ancestor of the Martial Heaven Sect?"

When the old man heard this, he still didn't move, and only heard a voice say, "Why, yours and other juniors have also heard of the old man's name?"

Qin Mu nodded again and again, and said, "The heroic deeds of the seniors, the juniors have heard of it for a long time, but the senior brothers said that the seniors have already been-" As he spoke, Qin Mu trembled, and his back was in a cold sweat.

Qin Mu just wanted to say that he heard that Xuanying Martial Ancestor had already ascended to the heavens. Now, what does it mean to meet this Xuanying Martial Ancestor?

On the stone platform, the old man's eyes were closed, as if he was dead, but the voice came again, "That's right, the old man was buried here a hundred years ago. ”

"Then, yesterday's old-timer was-" Hearing the old man's explanation, Qin Mu was surprised for a while.

"The person who taught you martial arts yesterday is actually the old man's out-of-body martial spirit. ”

Is he just a martial soul that you have left your body?

If the martial soul wants to come out of the body, it can only be done after the origin soul awakens and the cultivator and the martial soul are completely integrated!

In other words, when a cultivator cultivates to a certain limit, his martial soul will be integrated into the cultivator's seven souls and six spirits, and become the cultivator's own soul vein.

Thus, a cultivator in that realm actually has eight souls and six spirits in his body.

And this extra soul is the martial soul.

However, it is much more difficult to awaken the Origin Soul than the Martial Soul Awakening, the soul power comes from the Origin Soul, once the Origin Soul awakens, all the aura in heaven and earth will be attracted by the cultivator's martial soul.

At that time, the cultivator's dantian will be like a bottomless pit, and he can absorb as much spiritual energy as there is between heaven and earth.

And after these spiritual qi are absorbed by the origin soul, they will be refined into soul power.

After the soul power is super strong, he will enter the legendary Tianyuan Realm, and at that time, he will truly achieve the martial soul out of the body.

Just when Qin Mu was extremely puzzled, suddenly that voice appeared again.

"The time limit has come, time is running out, you come up, the old man will teach you everything he has learned all his life——"

When Qin Mu heard this, he was stunned.

Before he could react, suddenly a tendon-like green branch shot out from the center of the old man's eyebrows, rushing towards Qin Mu, and in the middle of approaching Qin Mu's eyebrows, the strong green branch seemed to melt, slowly injecting into Qin Mu's eyebrows.

Qin Mu's sea of knowledge was suddenly shocked!

He suddenly found himself in a purple space.

The whole space was purple, pure purple, without any sound or anything else.

The whole space, there is nothing but him.

Suddenly, a thick rumbling sound sounded in the space, and Qin Mu was startled.

Then, like a voice from the distant Flood Era, he said, "Junior, we meet again." ”

"Who are you, where am I?" Qin Mu asked confusedly as he looked around, looking at the blank purple space.

"Who am I? I'm just a soul, and this is your sea of knowledge—huh?"

Suddenly, the voice paused, and then said happily: "It seems that we are really destined! In the sea of your knowledge, there are only six souls and six souls, and the innate soul is incomplete, you and I are still quite compatible." ”

Only then did Qin Mu hear this voice, it was that Xuanying Martial Ancestor speaking.

However, when Qin Mu heard that he only had six souls and six spirits, he seemed a little overwhelmed and asked: "Ordinary people have seven souls and six spirits, but how can I only have six souls and six spirits, it is pure nonsense." ”

"Haha, ordinary people are like this, but you are not very human. You have an ancient beast sealed in you, named Chaos, and it is it that has devoured one of your souls. ”

"What is chaos?" Qin Mu asked puzzled.

"In ancient times, there were four evil beasts, which were Hanqi, Qiqi, Chaos, and Gluttony, and what was sealed in your body was one of the four evil beasts, Chaos. ”

Qin Mu was taken aback and said, "Why is the chaos in my body?"

"Okay, boy, you don't need to ask, the old man doesn't know the cause and effect. Today, you and I have a fate, I deify and ascend to heaven, send you a soul, achieve your innate soul, and pass on the soul of you and me who were proud of the world martial soul continent, I only hope that you can cultivate to the point of merging with heaven and earth, and that is the day when your cultivation is complete. ”

"When my martial soul enters your sea of consciousness, I have to cultivate diligently and completely integrate it with your body, so that it can be used by you—"

Then, without waiting for Qin Mu to answer, he felt that the purple space suddenly turned pale.

At this time, countless turquoise branches suddenly appeared in this space, rushing towards Qin Mu like a flood, half a breath, and wrapped Qin Mu in it, and the huge soul power surge directly made the young man dizzy and fainted.

Just when Qin Mu was fainting, the wolf-like rolling martial soul was constantly humming, and he seemed excited.

After a long time, the countless turquoise tendon branches, in Qin Mu's sea of knowledge, no longer rolled up in a rage, docile as a sheep, that appearance was like finding the final destination, condensed into a blue veined tendon branch like a big tree in the sky.

This is the habitat of the martial soul, all the soul power is gushing out from this green branch, and with the improvement of soul power, this green branch and leaf will grow and become thicker and stronger-

Time passed in the flick of a finger, and before you knew it, night had fallen, but in the cave, it was still as bright as day.

If you look closely, you will find that this cave is actually in a spirit crystal vein, and these rays of light are emitted by spirit crystals.

The night moon was shining, and when the bright moonlight was sprinkled all over the emerald green peak, Qin Mu, who was stunned by the martial spirit, slowly woke up, and when his eyes opened, he was shocked at first, because he knew the sea, and obviously felt a powerful soul power.

This kind of soul power made his whole body full of strength. And when he touched his arm, he found that his skin had become much harder!

This is a sign of breaking through the Martial Sect's Fivefold Realm!

"W-how is this possible!"

"Hallucination, this must be an illusion!"

Looking at his arm for a moment, Qin Mu suddenly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and after his mood calmed down, his palm trembled a little and touched his arm again.

Passing through the palm, there is a kind of hardness like a stratum corneum, although this hardness is not as hard as wood and stone, but compared to before, the hardness of this skin is obviously several times stronger!

This is clearly a sign of the Martial Sect's Fivefold Dao, that is, the realm of quenching the body's fivefold realm! As long as you cultivate for another half a year, this kind of skin is getting harder, then it will be the real Martial Sect's Fivefold Path.

In that case, stepping into the realm of the Five Rank Martial Sect is just around the corner.

After that, you can advance to the fourth-rank Martial Sect, followed by the half-step Martial Saint, then the third-rank Martial Saint, and the second-rank -

However, just as he was thinking about it, when he unconsciously looked at his neck, his love suddenly fell to the bottom.

I saw that between the rows of my neck, the stone pendant that I had worn for 14 years was gone.

Qin Mu hurriedly got up, searched around his body in infinite panic, searched all over his pockets, searched all the surrounding places, but still saw no trace of the stone pendant.

"It's over, it's over, if my father had a spirit in heaven, he would definitely blame me. Qin Mu sat on the ground all of a sudden, feeling extremely guilty in his heart.

"This is what my mother left me, if I lose it, how should I face my mother. ”

When Qin Mu felt guilty, tears flowed involuntarily.

However, when he wiped his chest, he found that there seemed to be a small raised hard object on his chest.

Qin Mu took a closer look and found that a blue pattern appeared on his chest, and the shape of that blue pattern was exactly the same as the appearance of the stone pendant.

Could it be that the Sealed Beast Spirit Crystal has already fused with my body? Thinking of this, Qin Mu immediately showed a smile on his face, and said secretly in his heart: "It must be the case, that old man gave me a soul, it must be the reason for that powerful martial soul that made the Sealed Beast Spirit Crystal merge with me." ”

It's also good that you don't have to hang around your neck all the time, and it's more convenient to integrate into your body.

"By the way, what about that Xuanying Martial Ancestor?"

At this time, Qin Mu remembered that the old man came. He hurriedly looked at the stone platform, which was empty, and the old man was gone.
